Permafrost Formation In A Meandering River Floodplain

“... KEY POINTS:
• River meandering resets permafrost development and vegetation succession by eroding old floodplain areas and depositing new land
• On the Koyukuk River, permafrost rapidly forms in new deposits, but it takes over 4 Kyr to develop to its full areal extent of 85%
• The rate of permafrost formation is likely linked to vegetation succession on younger and overbank deposition on older floodplain areas…”

A new study reveals that climate change alters river pathways on Earth and Mars. The researchers used satellite images and computer simulations to compare how rivers respond to different climate scenarios. They found that rivers can change their course, shape, and size depending on rainfall, temperature, and vegetation. #ClimateChange #RiverDynamics #EarthAndMars https://www.space.com/climate-change-alters-river-pathways-on-earth-and-mars?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=kon4444%2Fmagazine%2FThe+Environment%2C+We+Live+Here+
